Genesis
G'day and welcome to our series, "Exploring the Bible" This is also the title of our latest book available on Amazon by clicking here or visiting PulpTheology.com
Key Verses:
- Genesis 3:13-15
- Genesis 12:2-3
The first 11 chapters of The Book of Genesis tell of the creation of the world. They tell the story of the first human beings and their fall into sin. Sin spreads throughout the world, occasioning the flood.
The second part of the book, chapters 12 to 50 concentrates on God’s dealing with Abraham, the man he chose to correct the problems that human sin was causing, the one man through whom God promises to bring salvation and blessing to the whole world.
From Abraham, to Isaac, to Jacob, to Joseph, God’s promises begin to result in the nation whose mission it is to bring back the world of mankind to the love and service of the Lord. (They fail – Jesus is necessary!)

Key Verses:
The Book of Ruth is a story of love, devotion and redemption set in the dark era of the Judges. It tells the story of Ruth, a pagan woman giving up everything to cling to the people and God of Israel.
The book reveals her faithfulness when the nation of Israel was at its most faithless to God. She was to be the great-grandmother of King David and thus proves that non-Israelites had a role to play in the purposes of God.

2 Samuel
G'day and welcome to our series, "Exploring the Bible" This is also the title of our latest book available on Amazon by clicking here or visiting PulpTheology.com
Key Verses:
- 2 Samuel 7:12-13
- 2 Samuel 22:21-22
The Book of 2 Samuel records the highlights of David’s reign, firstly over Judah and then over the nation of Israel. It traces his ascent to the throne, his victories and sins and the consequences of his sins upon his family and the nation.
It is a distinctly mixed story however, given the weakness of human nature, David is the most successful of all the kings and will be looked back to by subsequent generations as the greatest leader of God’s people.
